The Application of DICTION to Content Analysis Research in Strategic Management
Abstract
DICTION is a computer-aided content analysis program grounded in a number of theoretical bases in linguistic research. DICTION has a number of attractive features that could be used to analyze unique elements of language in narrative texts germane to strategic management research. The authors apply the DICTION software to a sample of mission statements from 408 Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business colleges of business with a focus on gaining insights concerning how DICTION can be used in strategic management research utilizing content analysis. They find significant differences in word usage in mission statements based on organizational characteristics, including business school performance. They conclude with suggestions for future research.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
